in at the top of the tower
it was the borttom of the hour
i want it back and its doesn't been hit
Nurse some of this
reacted to the odor
the only thing i'd seen with my eyes
she said
Run Run Run!!
as fast as you can run or you can walk
to give you all some more because you just cant talk.
Run Run Run!!
well dont you know i was yours?
i'm goin on my way
yeah
i'm tired of all the ends
all the ends
and she protects us all in the end
and i said
i'm stuck, but i go out to walk
Im bringin down on tuesday
wednesday, i pay for it
i gave it up
to what i said
leave me in peace
he said
Run Run Run!!
as fast as you can run or you can walk
she give you oh so much because you wont talk
Run Run Run!!
but i said that was yours
im tired of all the ends
all the ends
bringing back to my heart
when i said i was right
but she protects her son standing right there
on the edge
and now its tough
but i go out to watch
it was the borttom of the hour
i want it back and its doesn't been hit
Nurse some of this
reacted to the odor
the only thing i'd seen with my eyes
she said
Run Run Run!!
as fast as you can run or you can walk
to give you all some more because you just cant talk.
Run Run Run!!
well dont you know i was yours?
i'm goin on my way
yeah
i'm tired of all the ends
all the ends
and she protects us all in the end
and i said
i'm stuck, but i go out to walk
Im bringin down on tuesday
wednesday, i pay for it
i gave it up
to what i said
leave me in peace
he said
Run Run Run!!
as fast as you can run or you can walk
she give you oh so much because you wont talk
Run Run Run!!
but i said that was yours
im tired of all the ends
all the ends
bringing back to my heart
when i said i was right
but she protects her son standing right there
on the edge
and now its tough
but i go out to watch

Love in a Vacuum
'Til Tuesday
'Til Tuesday
Well, in my opinion this song is about being a young & maybe a little naive &/or introverted girl and finding yourself loving a man who is at first very charming, carefree & outgoing, and seems at first to be without limits, as in
"There was a time
you opened up every doorway
you didn't mind if everything
wasn't your way"
then that man starts to gradually become more introverted & shows their more possessive/obsessive side to you as the relationship progresses, even while they keep up the appearance of being carefree & outgoing to everyone else,
"Don't pull away
that goes against what you told me
I look in your eyes
I realize what you've sold me
is love in a vacuum"
so you confront them about the way they're acting and of course they deny it,
"I think you've changed
but you insist that
that's not true"
quite possibly they are an addict of some sort, my guess would be cocaine, &/or showing very obsessive behavior towards you (early on in the video for this song we see the man hanging a picture up, it is a very large portrait of Aimee & it is prominently displayed in his/their apartment for the duration of the song), thus their "love in a vacuum",
"You look so strange, so distant
that you're hardly you
Now I can see
how you have been acting different
You say it's me
but I know
that it isn't
it's love in a vacuum"
but still you are in love with them and don't want to leave them and you know that they are truly in love with you and they don't want you to leave them either, maybe they are convinced you can save them from themself, maybe they are so broken that the possibility of an overdose &/or suicide attempt is very real and you want to get through to them that their behavior not only dangerous but it is also just pissing you off and if they don't wise up they run the risk of loosing you, as in the lines
"You will be lonely
if you leave me alone", so you want to save them but can't get through to them due to the addiction &/or emotional problems they have,
"Love in a vacuum
and that's not enough
love in a vacuum
You will be lonely
you'll be the only one who feels this way
You will be lonely
if you leave me alone
You will be lonely
you'll be the only one who feels this way
it's just not enough"
you want them to understand that the love they are giving you is not enough when it is filtered through the vacuum of their drug addiction &/or emotional impairment,
"You will be lonely
you'll be the only one who feels this way
it's just not enough
and just wait
you will be lonely
Love in a vacuum
Love in a vacuum
and that's not enough
Love in a vacuum".
'Love In A Vacuum' for me is a hauntingly truthful acute argument on the loneliness of obsession and almost inevitable loss of love that follows people who are broken in some way or another; the obsessives, the coke heads, the drunks, addicts or the just-plain-old emotionally broken; a razor sharp, lyrically driven, deceptively poppy, yet ultimately-depressing-in-the-best-way song.
Quintessential Aimee Mann.
i'd like to marry julian, yes i would.
Gotta love that "run run run"...
somehow I'm pretty sure sagganuts isn't the name of the song. people are fucking sloppy as hell with their kazaa and whatnot and always mistitling things.
even though the recording is low quality because its live, this song is amazing.
I was in love woth the chorus before it existed.
id marry him too!
The official title is "Run Run Run"... it's a Velvet Underground cover.
that's a stupid comment. it is NOT a cover of the Velvet Underground's Run Run Run. They are completely differnt songs.
Cover or not, sweet CRAP its a kickass song!!
what is this song a cover of then
It's not a cover of anything. it's an unreleased song they sang in a place called Arlene Grocery years ago. They enver produced.
But it's damn good, and I wish they did.
^^^^thank you
